Default Re: Split New Inner Tubes

[B]Since they split on the seam line, it's quite apparent that you DIDN'T[PINCH them. Must be TRULY defective!!!
Isn't it amazing, that over the years, NOBODY has come up with something BETTER, than the OLD PNEUMATIC TIRE?---Even TRAIN WHEELS have been UNCHANGED. Train tracks STILL mimic the spacing of ROMAN CHARIOT TRACKS!!!
Saw a pic of some SOLID RUBBER TIRES, made here, that had 2" HOLES bored through them, for "CUSHION"---LOL----A Frenchman made a tube shaped SPRING, to replace the TUBE, but that didn't wurk, either!!---My Home Help Gal just had a flat, from a 4"" NAIL, My Daughter had one from a 4" BOLT!---Mine have mostly been from SCREWS!!
MOST flats happen on the REAR, I "think" the FRONT hits something & propels it at ROCKET speed, into the rear tire. Once found a 1/2 X 9/16" wrench, INSIDE a rear tire!!!
